Set on the first floor of a Georgian mid-terrace near Portobello Road, this one-bedroom flat combines period character with a fresh mid-century modern interior. Large sash-style windows and wood floors give the main room a bright, airy feel despite the property’s compact footprint. The separate kitchen and bathroom keep the traditional layout, and the long remaining lease (163 years) provides ownership security for buyers.
The building’s solid-brick construction and double glazing (install date unknown) mean the flat is comfortable now, though walls are likely uninsulated and some buyers may want to upgrade heating or add insulation for long-term comfort and efficiency. Service charges average around £1,600 per year and heating runs on an electric boiler and radiators.
Location is a major draw: fashionable Portobello and Golborne roads, shops, cafés and Ladbroke Grove underground are all within easy walking distance. Nearby schools include several well-regarded primary and secondary options. Be aware the area scores high for crime and is recorded as very deprived; practical considerations include typical inner-city noise and the need to assess personal safety and security improvements.
This apartment suits a first-time buyer or city professional seeking an affordable entry into W10 with scope to personalise. It offers immediate move-in potential with realistic scope for modest updating to add value and improve energy performance.
